What has this got to do with Luke Mitchell being innocent or guilty? I do not judge people by their families or who they know, I am not that shallow.
Following my experiences, I do not think it at all
shallow to learn more about the people campaigning on behalf of people like Luke Mitchell. There motives, agendas, egos etc.
I came to learn that some mothers for example are prepared to lie under oath and will go to great lengths in an attempt to cover up both the true character and behaviours of their sons and indeed themselves in order to present a facade of normalcy and to sustain the lie.
With hindsight Simon Hall was highly narcissistic.
"Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder have a very distorted sense of self. They are generally “grandiose”, which means they have an inflated or exaggerated opinion of their positive traits and / or abilities. Even though some are very attractive, highly intelligent, or exceptionally talented, narcissists typically regard themselves as elite or exceptional compared to everyone else. Regardless of their actual social standing, they perceive themselves as very important – and expect others to view them as such.
Narcissists thrive on the praise and admiration of others. Their air of superiority is exaggerated often quite obvious, although some narcissists are very skilled at pretending to be humble when necessary. However, their grandiosity can easily be shattered by criticism from others. When this occurs, it usually elicits rage, rejection, or a torrent of condescending remarks skillfully rendered to put the offending person in his or her place.
Narcissists, as a general rule, are very selfish. They have very little, if any, empathy for others. They may pretend to, however. Successful narcissists can initially come across as very understanding, very giving, and very selfless. In time, however, this façade will crack because they can’t sustain it. Their true colors always show eventually. Sadly, this can be quite a shock to anyone who was initially fooled by their act.
